if you want a lift rash then get a train to me and ill take ya.....in the van tho lol

 

[dozza.13]

Manifold looks awesome, its a shame to hide it down the back of the engine bay!!

 

[rashcupra]

engine is all in no coolant samco pipes and still need to sort some wiring out then she will be SINGING! pics are to follow very soon!

dozza the manifold is not hiden if you look at engine bay from the side as the VR6 lump sits very far forward on the mk2 can see pritty much everything down the back!

also i wont be going to gti festival as im away on a fishing holiday (another hobby )

 

[dozza.13]

How do you find time for all this stuff!!??

Cool that you can see the manifold, im sure ull have lots of fun polishing it up for all the shows!

Lookin forward to seeing the pics when its all in and running!

 

[RichieRich]

[gazjones]

the manifold will turn golden with the heat but that will make it look even better! good work rash will be nice to see the finished article.

 

[danmay]

[rashcupra]

its the best time at the moment as im bolting all the shiney bits that have been sitting in my room on now

[Ad Lav]

Good man

Steady progress as per usual!

 

[gazjones]

decat will sound good. has it go a big back box? if not its going to be loud very loud!
surprised you have gone for lots of black like the inlet manifold, i would have dont the polished and valve cover black or other way round, but saying that the cover for the manifold is silver so will stand out!
